TORONTO - The head of the Toronto Police sex crimes unit says a brazen daylight sex assault on a cleaning woman last month was “one of the most brutal attacks” she has ever seen.

“It was a very vicious attack,” Insp. Joanna Beaven-Desjardins told a press conference Wednesday.

The attack occurred around 3 p.m. on May 22, in the Deepwood Cr.-Greenland Rd. neighbourhood.

A 24-year-old woman was cleaning a home in the area — prepping it for sale — when a man convinced her to let him in to see the home and sexually assaulted her, police have said.

He fled when he heard a noise outside the house.

A composite sketch of his face was initially released. On Wednesday, police provided a full body composite sketch and further detail on the attacker’s clothes, in an effort to jog people’s memories.

He is described as white, in his mid-20s, around 5-foot-8, weighing 130 pounds with a thin build, and has straight medium-light red hair that sticks out at ear level.

He wore a faded orange shirt, torn at the collar, and blue jeans that had been cut into shorts, with frayed edges below the knee level. He also had black running shoes with white writing.

“Take note of the shirt,” Beaven-Desjardins said. “The shirt is described as being very worn, very well-worn, almost to the point where it was starting to yellow, and at the collar of the shirt it was either cut or ripped.”
